Another Year Older, Another Year Wiser

24.

It sounds so old.

However, Korean age is always a year or two older than western age. When you are born you are automatically one year old. They count the pregnancy period as one year. They also count another year on the Korean (Lunar) New Year. So if you are born right before the New Year, even if you are only a few days old, after the New Year you will be counted as two years old. So in Korean age, I could potentially be 26 years old. Oy.
